Why It Matters
Awarded One Michelin Key for two consecutive years (2024 and 2025) as part of the Raya Collection. Holds Travelife Gold Certification and a Trusted Thailand stamp. One of the few places in Chiang Mai where you can walk to Wat Chedi Luang and Thapae Gate in minutes, yet feel completely removed from the street noise. The Sunday Walking Street market literally runs past the front entrance.
Tamarind Village is a Lanna-style boutique property sitting in Chiang Mai's historic old town, built around a series of flower-filled garden courtyards anchored by a 200-year-old tamarind tree. A bamboo archway frames the entrance and from the moment you step through it, the city outside genuinely disappears. With 41 rooms and 5 suites spread across low-rise pavilions, it feels more like a secluded village compound than a city hotel — and that's exactly the point.
Where You'll Stay
5 room types available
Lanna Deluxe Room
Same Lanna design DNA as the standard room but 5 sqm bigger and with a small balcony or terrace for sitting out and watching the courtyard. Cozy and stylish. The extra outdoor space makes a real difference for morning coffee.
30 sqmLanna Room
Entry-level rooms on the first and second floors looking onto garden courtyards. Decorated with hand-made lacquer boxes, embroidered tribal caps, hill tribe fabrics against white bedding, and terracotta tile floors. Compact but thoughtfully designed — this is the Lanna aesthetic at its most distilled.
25 sqmLanna Suite
At 46 sqm, these first and second floor suites have proper separate sitting and sleeping areas — good for couples who want room to spread out. Decorated with regional artifacts and bold northern Thai fabrics. The marble-tiled bathroom features both a shower and a bathtub, plus double vanities.
46 sqm
Tamarind Suite
The most spacious standard suite at 50 sqm, with wooden floors, a generous living area, and a marble bathroom with both a bathtub and shower. Decorated with striking black and white photography, carved antique chests and cabinets, and tribal artifacts. Feels more like a curated apartment than a hotel room.
50 sqm
The Spa Suite
The flagship room. Positioned next to The Village Spa and reached by its own private staircase, this 60 sqm suite is Tamarind Village's top-of-house offering. The large private terrace has a sun bed and faces two directions: the central courtyard with its ancient tamarind tree on one side, and the elegant spire of a historic temple on the other. The marble bathroom has a separate soaking tub and an outdoor shower.
